THE DAILY EXAMINER.

JULY 20, 1891.

Notes and Comments.

—Mr. L. H. Davies boasted, a few weeks ago, that he had twelve objections to the petitions filed against the election of him- self and Mr. Welsh—‘‘ any one of which was fatal.” The fact’is that not one of the objections has been sustained !

—The contingency which has arisen in respect tothe first application of the new law concerning the juries in the Supreme Cort, was pointed out, while the bill was i transitu, by the Leader of the Opposition But the Leader of the Government was cocksure that the attorneys would not fail to give the required notice in cases in which a jury was wanted. It is now stat-

_ed that the Patriot’s attorneys in a libel

suit are among those who failed to give notice and that one of the Patriot’s coun- sel is Mr. Fred. Peters !

—The Patriot approves of the action of the Local Government in dismissing ‘Tory officials to make room for Liberals,” and hints that partizan officials in the Dominion civil service shovld also be summarily dealt with. The Patriot evidently believes in the “spoils system.” However, if the partizan Dominion officials were all dis- inissed there would be a great many Grits out of ajob. Perhaps a taste of the medi- cine now being administered by the Local Government and which the Patriot evident- ly relishes, would do good all round.

—The Empire says: There is a moral for the Canadian producer and shipper in the remarks of the Manchester Guardian upon dairy shipments from New Zealand. It seems that either through want of proper precaution in packing, or suitable sccom- modation on board ship the export indus- try is ‘‘ threatened wish partial collapse.” Britain is the best outside market in the world for dairy produce, and the care taken in preparing shipments for it is never thrown away, while any mistakes mude are full of dangerous consequences to a valu- able and expanding trade.

—The official census figures have brorght an unwelcome roost home to the boomsters of the western territories which have lately been admitted as States of the Union. Idaho’s population, represented as about 125,000, is reduced to 84,385. Wyomin suffers a drop from 105,000 to 60,704. Nevada is brought down to 45,761. It is the same in other districts. Writers: in eastern papers are warning their young men not to go west unless they head for British Columbia, where the growth is steady and solid. The Canadian territories on the whole compare favorably with those of the States, and when our census ‘re- turns have been made it will be found, it is safe to say, that we have made no great cry over little wool and that the settlers who have gone west in Canada have reason to be satisfied with the country and its pros- pects.

—The Montreal True Witness, the organ of the Irish Catholics of the Province of Quebec, publishes the following in its editorial columns :

“Itis to be regretted that so excellent a journal as the New York Catholic Review has permitted itself to be deceived by one of the type of ‘reptile pressmen,’ who make it their business to misrepresent Canada in the publica- tions of the United States, apparently under the inspiration of the Cartwright-Wiman body of conspirators. ‘The falsehoods of these people have become familiar in the secular papers, but it is new to see them cropping up ina section of the press which hitherto has been regarded as trustworthy. We regret to read in the Catholic Review, on the responsibility of ‘Correspondent,’ that Sir John Macdonald has departed and left nothing after him save a great and much loved name. All parties are at sea, the unity of the Dominion is threatened by the discord of the provinces, and as our Canadian correspondent showed last week the sentiment of annexation is grow- ing in every quarter.” We are happy to in- form the Review that it is in error and that its correspondent can give not the slightest pect of his unworthy assertions, Great as is he loss Canada has suffered by the death of Sir John Macdonald, though his person has left us, his principles remain and the order of our ship of state has not and will not be changed a single point.

Election Petitions.——

“PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS DISMISSED. The.Chief Justice this. morning gave judgment in the controverted elections cases, dismissing the preliminary pies tions with costs These objections were argued on the 2nd July. The return of each of the Liberal members for Queen 8| and Prince Cuunties was protested. The, petitions were served in Ottawa. Eleven} preliminary objections were filed against the sufliciency of the petitions and the, service in Queen’s and Prince Counties, ; and in Queen’s an additional objection | was made that Davies and Welsh should ; have been returned by acclamation as it ' was alleged that Fergusun and Blake could not resign their seats as mem- bers of the Provincial Legislature on ac-! count of petitions against their return having been filed and still pending. The other principal objections were that the! deposit was not made with the proper officer cf the court; that the service in Ot- tawa was insufficient; and that the petitions dil net show jurisdiction. Hazard and Peters appeared foa the respondente, and W. A. O Morson for the petitioners. <a

La Grippe.

A report on la grippe prepared by Dr. Parsons, an officer of the Local Govern- ment Board in England, is given in outline in the Times of the 4th inst. The com- plaint is said to be ‘communicable in the ordinary. relations of individuals to one another.” The common belief has been that it fell upon certain localities all at ones as the result of seme miasgmatic infla- cence. But there seems to be abundant proof that a few dropping cases have pre- ceded the epidemic in every locality; and that, as the disease is manifestly one of a very short period of incubation, there hes been ample time for each of these dropping cages to act as a centre of unsus- pected contagion. More than one sudden outburst appears to have

The supposition. of another expert is that the contagium of la grippe is a microbe which enters the system through the sur- face of the eye, and which exerts its chief effect upon the nervous system: This hy- pothesis derives some support from the fact that equine influenza is commonly called pink-eye, but it cannot yet be regarded in any other light than as an ingenious sugges- tion. If it were hereafter established, the chief defence against la grippe would prob- ably be the employment af parasite-destroy- ing remedies in the furm of eye lotions,

Hatirax, July 18.—The codfishing is re- ported to-day as follows : Very good at Fox Bay and good at English Bay, Anticosti; very good at Long Point, good at seven Islands and Marie River, Quebec; poor at Perce and Grand River, fair at Newport Point, but poor at Paspebiac, owing to bait not being procurable, There were no re- ports of codfish being taken on the coast of New Brunswick: only poor catches at Al- berton and Souris, PET. In Cape Breton fair catches are reported at Port Hood and St Peters; good at Arichat. The cod and haddock fisheries are reported fair at Isaacs Harbor, Spry Bay and Musquodobit Har-

bor, N ; poor at Yarmouth. The herring fishery is good at Perce, but poor at all other stations in

Quebec. Fair catches reported at Souris, POR AS Louisburg, L’Ardoise and Ari. chat, C. B., but poor throughout the whole coast of Nova Scotia. A few mack. erel are being caught on the north side of P. EK. Island, and at East Point and Black Bush. Reported schooling off St. Peter’s, C. B., and quite plentiful in Musquodoboit Harbor, N. S., but no large catch, Squid reported very plentiful at Canso.

It is difficult to judge from the conflicting published accounts how much Russian grain, if any, will be for export from this year’s crop. The fact that speculators are endeavor. Ing to corner the ciop and that American speculators are engaged in vigorously shouting down the reports of failure from Russia would indicate that the outlook is serious enough. Fiee Russia, the organ of the exiled nihilists, in its current issue quotes from the Volga Messenger, the Russian Gazette, the Volhynia and other papers, a number of ex- tracts which go to show that there is actu:] famine in the provinces of Perm, Kostromz, Kazan and other places, while there is a famine of corn in Odessa, Sebastopol and other cities. ‘So far,” say Free Russia, “the picture is certainly black enough, but what will be its further development we have yet to see,”

A Handsome Prize. AN EVIDENCE OF WHAT A GENUINE MAGAZINE COMPETITION OFFERS.

On Friday there arrived from Toronto, for Miss M. Hora, a handsome Shetland Pony, harness and cart, being the first award in the Royal Quilt Competition of the Canadian Queen Magazine. lt attests the genuine nature of the magazine’s con- tests by its excellent condition and value. The Queen has frequent competitions and has made innumerable Jawards, display- ing a generosity quite surprising to those who have had experience of the limited field of Canadian journalistic enterprise. But the Queen has been a success as a business venture from the start, and is growing in literary excellence steadily. It covers the field of fashion, as well as light reading ; talks to the household, the young and indeed all home classes. The competi- tions have been used to assist the intréduc- tion of the magazine, for where-it’ is initro- duced it is quite certain to remain a nonth-
